To all :whom it may concern:

- Be 1t known that 1, JOHN A. UNGLAUB, a

citizen of the United States, residin atpresent invention being theprovision of a paint in which the various weather resisting materials orcomponent parts are spread over a greater area for a given amount andwhereby the wearing quality of the paint is increased.

It has been found thatwhen the present compound which primarily includesa solution of water and zinc sulfate and kerosene oil, when mixed with acolored paint composed of linseed oil and other necessary ingredients,will not cause an detrimental efiect upon thecoloring, an at the sametime the surface produced with the present compound and .the aint willdr exceedingly hard, and wi not peel, fla e or become chalky It has alsobeen found that the gloss obtained by a paint including thepresent comound will remain in such desired condition for two or more years, thusto rendering the same more durable than the present day paints. Thisresult is obtained only by the combination of the mixture of sulfate ofzinc solution and kerosene oil and 1 m a be obtained by the introductionof at Q. either %ther.

one of the ingredients without the In compounding. or mim'ng the presentaint, to'one gallon of white paint, made from pure white lead andlinseed oil to the to proper consistency for spreading, is'added' twoounces of a solution of sulfate-of zinc in soft or rain water, saidsulfate of zinc solution being of the strength stated hereinafter. Thissolution is thoroughly stirred to into the paint until itapparentlydisappears,

' requiring in lead paints apprommately ten minutes. One quart tooneaiid ahalf uarts of-soft or rain water is now added to t e bulk andstirred. until the water t0 thoroughly coled and after such commingling,one half int of kerosene oil is added and thoroug ycommingled with the.

mass. .e paint under these. conditions will be ready to apply with abrush. v

llf the weatherbe cold and the paint too thick, more kerosene is addedto thin. Linseed oil is added for outside work, while tu entine. isadded. for inside work.

forming the sulfate solution, the preferable quantities used are onepound of zinc to sulfate to one gallon of soft water, the sulfate ofzinc therein and the final solution filtered.

Where the paint is made from dry colors,

double the quantity of the sulfate of nine solution is used and is addedwhen the colors have been mixed with linseed oil, one half 3 11 on ofsoft water being thoroughly mixed and stirred'with the mixture after thesulfate of zinc solution has been stirred there- 7 in. The kerosene asbefore is added to this me. j i

It has been found in practice that the;

-wa'ter added, as set forth, after, the stirring in of the sulfate of,zinc solution,'tp gether with the kerosene, assists in thickening thepamt andincreasesits bulk, sothat more surface can be covered withoutdecreasing The kerosene oil w1ll prevent the water has not separated,the same being held within themass owing to the sulfate of zincsolutionand the-kere oil. at is claimed is:. I 1. A paint having a solution ofsulfate of zinc in water, kerosene and water mixed therewith. v v

2. A paint composed of a igment, a si cative oil, asolution of sulfateof zinc in 100 water, soft water, and kerosene oil.

3. A paint composed of a pigment, boiled tu oil, [a solution of sulfateof zinc in water, kerosene oil and water.

' 4 The herein described rocess of lot ing paint, consisting in oroughlycom-. mingling with a ure of 'a pigment and linseed oil a solution ofsulfate of zinc in eing thoroughly diesolved k the paint so i fromchalking and rubbing 0d and does not water; adding thereto andcommingling therewith water; and adding thereto and commingling with theabove, kenosene oil.

sicoative oil, combined with a solution of sulfate of zinc, soft water;approximately 10 one fourth of the combined pigment and siccativeoil,"and kerosene oil of about one half thequantity of the soft water.

j Iii testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have heretoaflixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
